I thought it would be fun to show the versatility of this set by using it for something other than Halloween themed projects. I created a fall bookmark for today's preview. I started by using watercolours to paint the sunset sky and grass. I then stamped the tree and cat silhouettes from Spooky Silhouettes in  our Marvelous Mocha Hybrid ink. I created the fall foliage using the trio of leaf stamps in the set with our Yummy Yellow ink and two of our brand new ink colours, Mossy Meadow and Pumpkin Patch. Since this was sunset and not a night sky, there is enough lighting in the scene to add a bit of detail to the silhouettes. To do this, I used some gouache to add bark to the tree, shading to the leaves and a bit of fur to the cat.  I made a little tassel and finished it off with a couple of teeny leaf buttons. 

Here's the full set:
